Exports, international investment, and plant performance : evidence from a non-parametric test
Girma, Sourafel; Görg, Holger; Strobl, Eric - 2003
This paper compares the performance of purely domestic plants, domestic exporters and domestic multinationals. For our empirical analysis we utilise a non-parametric approach based on the principle of first order stochastic dominance. We find that the distributions for multinationals dominate...

Multinational Enterprises and New Trade Theory: Evidence for the Convergence Hypothesis
Barrios, Salvador; Görg, Holger; Strobl, Eric - C.E.P.R. Discussion Papers - 2001
According to the ‘convergence hypothesis’, multinational companies will tend to displace national firms and trade as … measures are then used to test the convergence hypothesis for a panel of data of country pairs over the years 1985-96. Our … results provide some empirical support for the convergence hypothesis. …

Does corporate taxation deter multinationals? : evidence from a historic event in Ireland
Görg, Holger; Strobl, Eric - 2014
We use a unique exogenous corporate tax policy change in the Republic of Ireland to investigate how corporate taxation affects foreign direct investment at the extensive and intensive margin. To this end we construct exhaustive sectoral and plant level panel data and use...

Spillovers Through Backward Linkages from Multinationals : Measurement Matters!
Barrios, Salvador - 2009
We argue that the measures of backward linkages used in recent papers on spillovers from multinational companies are potentially problematic, as they depend on a number of restrictive assumptions, namely that (i) multinationals use domestically produced inputs in the same proportion as imported...
